Right now the PCM has relented and is letting me load and unload tunes, but that frakin' trans is behaving poorly. I think it's either a line pressure issue or converter issue, and it seems worse with rain or humidity? Thinking some short in the line pressure wires where I tapped in a resistor eons ago. Also I think the problem with stokers and trans may be line pressure problems from the fact that the PCM senses load and applies a set amount of line pressure all the while assuming you have stock HP and TQ....now lets say you have an extra 75 HP at half throttle then stock and the PCM doesn't give enough line pressure then bad things can happen...well just a theory. Need to clean up those wires and re-solder them and tap in another resistor to get the line pressure up and go from there.
